The only possible effect one can have on the world is through unpopular ideas.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Ideas have consequences that can transform society.
Ideas govern the world, or throw it into chaos.
I have no predilection for unpopularity as such, but I hold it much preferable to the popularity of a day, which perishes with the transient topic upon which it is grounded.
Ideas have consequences.
Ideas control the world.
Trump might become deeply unpopular in the way that I, with some people, am deeply unpopular, but that doesn't mean that we don't get things done. You can be unpopular and successful.
Ideas are powerful because they allow us to see the world as it could be, rather than what it is.
In all the world, rich people are very unpopular.
In a world without any criticism at all, although there are many actors who would think they would be delighted to see that happen, would in fact be a far more problematic world than they could ever imagine.
Example is not the main thing in influencing others. It is the only thing.
